I just got divorced, and the female CEO is already clinging to me.

Chapter 68 Do you truly love my daughter?

Shen Qianfeng shifted his gaze to Ye Cheng: "I'm not one to judge people by their appearance. Now I'm going to ask you a question. Think it over before you answer me."

Ye Cheng roughly guessed what question Shen Qianfeng wanted to ask, and couldn't help but glance at Shen Qingrou: "Please go ahead."

Shen Qianfeng asked, "Do you truly love my daughter?"

Ye Cheng looked at Shen Qingrou with deep affection: "It's too easy to say I like you. I'm willing to spend my whole life protecting Qingrou, until death do us part."

This was the solemn oath he swore when he faced the mysterious man.

He just never imagined that he would marry Shen Qingrou one day.

They thought that all they had to do was silently protect from the shadows.

Who would have thought he'd be able to return home with a beauty in his arms?

The thought seemed unrealistic, making him uneasy.

However, since things have come to this point, we can only go with the flow.

Shen Qianfeng then looked at Shen Qingrou: "I need to make this clear first. The rumors circulating outside that the Shen family is going to form a marriage alliance with the Chen family are completely unfounded."

I have no intention of arranging a marriage for you, nor would I do anything so absurd.

Therefore, I hope you will carefully consider who you choose to marry and not act impulsively.

He was still quite bothered by the fact that Ye Cheng was disabled.

I think Shen Qingrou just fell for Ye Cheng's handsome face.

Although she is very talented, her flaws cannot be overlooked.

Especially after Guan Li examined Ye Cheng once, even Guan Li was helpless, and there was basically no cure.

Shen Qingrou said firmly, "I think the person I chose is quite good, so you don't need to worry about it."

Seeing that Shen Qingrou still had this attitude, Shen Qianfeng said, "The weather is getting colder, how about we prepare your wedding next spring?"

Shen Qingrou said indifferently, "I don't care about weddings or anything like that, as long as Ye Cheng is by my side."

If there's nothing else to discuss, we'll be leaving.

Shen Qianfeng sighed: "Shall we have dinner together tonight?"

Shen Qingrou said, "The development permit will likely be issued tomorrow. We will continue to study the plan tonight to see if there are any areas that can be optimized."

There's no need for a meal; everyone's quite busy.

This reason left Shen Qianfeng speechless. In the past, his daughter had been idle and often nagged him to focus on her career.

Now that he's finally developed a sense of career ambition, how could he possibly dampen his enthusiasm?

"Okay, you guys go ahead and get busy."

Shen Qingrou pushed Ye Cheng and turned to leave.

Once outside, Ye Cheng said softly, "Why bother? It's too hurtful to my father."

Shen Qingrou looked around warily and said bluntly, "He can't control his crotch, who can he blame!"

Ye Cheng sighed: "Well, every family has its own problems."

As the two were talking, the sound of high heels suddenly came from the corridor.

Shen Qingrou quickly shut her mouth. A short while later, Du Miaowei came over from around the corner carrying a stack of documents.

She greeted him with a look of surprise and delight: "Oh, Mr. Shen, I'm so glad to have found you! I heard you were in the chairman's office, so I rushed over as fast as I could. I was afraid you would leave if I was too slow."

Shen Qingrou looked calmly at Du Miaowei, her best friend from high school and now her subordinate, and asked, "What are you doing? Didn't I give you the authority to make decisions? You can just sign these documents on my behalf."

Du Miaowei said with difficulty, "But the chairman has already taken back my authority. From now on, all documents must be signed by you personally."

Shen Qingrou turned around and glanced in the direction of the chairman's office: "Okay, put the documents in my car, I'll sign them when I get back to the hotel."

Du Miaowei asked curiously, "Are you leaving? Didn't Director Ling want you to accompany her to a banquet tonight?"

Shen Qingrou was taken aback: "I didn't receive any notification."

Du Miaowei took out her phone and looked at it: "Oh, then I'm officially informing you now."

Director Ling said to meet in the lobby on the first floor at 7 p.m.

The hairstylist and stylist are ready. Mr. Shen, please follow me.

Shen Qingrou hesitated and asked, "Can I not go?"

Du Miaowei's eyes curved into crescents: "Director Ling said this banquet is very important. If President Shen doesn't want to go, he can ask her for leave directly."

Shen Qingrou put her hand to her forehead: "Can you stop being so sarcastic?"

What important banquet is it that I absolutely must attend?

Du Miaowei shrugged: "I don't know either. Director Ling didn't say, and I didn't dare to ask."

Shen Qingrou looked at Du Miaowei with displeasure: "What use are you? Come and accept your punishment!"

Du Miaowei glanced at Ye Cheng, her face instantly turning red. She said shyly, "President Shen, I know I was wrong. Could you please give me some face?"

Shen Qingrou smiled and said, "Okay, if you cancel the banquet tonight, I won't punish you."

Du Miaowei sighed speechlessly: "You should punish me instead."

As she spoke, she walked over to Shen Qingrou, then turned around, bent down slightly, and her shapely figure, tightly wrapped in her uniform, was breathtaking.

Du Miaowei is quite pretty and has a good figure.

Ye Cheng watched this scene strangely, wondering what Shen Qingrou was up to.

Just as he was confused, he heard a loud slap as Shen Qingrou slapped Du Miaowei's buttocks.

One drop on each side, so that the rain and dew can be evenly distributed.

Ye Cheng was dumbfounded. Was this kind of punishment acceptable?

Should I not be here?

Du Miaowei glanced at Ye Cheng, seemingly unintentionally, and saw him staring blankly at the scene, her face turning even redder.

Shen Qingrou only hit her twice before withdrawing her hand, then leaned close to Du Miaowei's ear and said, "Next time I'll have Ye Cheng punish you."

Du Miaowei's body suddenly stiffened: "No way."

Shen Qingrou straightened up: "I'd be reluctant to part with you even if you didn't want me."

"Go to my office and wait for me."

Du Miaowei, clutching the documents, hurried away.

Shen Qingrou pushed Ye Cheng back to the chairman's office, and without even knocking, she pushed the door open and entered.

"Old Shen, is there some important banquet tonight? I absolutely have to go."

Her tone was full of dissatisfaction, and all her hatred for Ling Suqiu was transferred to Shen Qianfeng.

Shen Qianfeng was taken aback upon hearing this: "What banquet? How come I don't know anything about it?"

Shen Qingrou was even more puzzled: "You don't know?"

My stepmother had Du Miaowei inform me; how could you, as the chairman, not know?

Shen Qianfeng said, "That must be a private banquet, probably just for you and your daughter. I probably won't have to attend."

It's been a long time since you two attended an event together.

You should take this opportunity to spend time with her.

Shen Qianfeng looked up at Shen Qingrou: "You wouldn't refuse, would you?"

Shen Qingrou wanted to explode and call her father senile: "You know I don't like attending formal banquets, it makes me very uncomfortable."

Shen Qianfeng said, "There will be many more activities like this in the future. Even if you don't like them, you have to learn to adapt."

Do you think I want to be on friendly terms with a bunch of old foxes, only to have them trip me up behind my back?

Not going means being unsociable and will lead to isolation.

Our Shen family is not yet at the level where we stand out from the crowd and need others to look up to us.

So, if you want more freedom, become strong enough.

Shen Qingrou pouted and said, "Can't I just give up? Why do I have to become strong enough!"

Shen Qianfeng knew that Shen Qingrou had a hundred reasons to argue with him, so he simply didn't bother arguing and said directly, "Go and discuss it with your stepmother."

Shen Qingrou lost her temper and turned to leave.
